87: The Arrival of Li Chengfeng, the Furious Monarch
“You're on patrol right now, what are you looking at?”
The soldier, whose eyes had been slightly red, instantly returned to normal after being bumped.
“Hmm? What's wrong with me?”
He scratched his head in confusion, clearly not knowing what he had just done.
“Did you lose your soul or something? Get back to patrolling. If the Garrison Guardian sees you, you'll be in for it.”
...
Demon Hell.
This was the area of Hell under the Pride Monarch’s jurisdiction.
Before him appeared a burly man with bulging muscles all over his body.
This man’s physique was robust, his muscles like those of a demon, looking quite terrifying.
“Lord of Wrath, this has nothing to do with me.”
“Those three Soul-Devouring Demons under your command just wanted revenge on their own.”
“I merely provided them with an opportunity. Who knew they would be so useless and just die?”
“You can’t blame me for this.”
The Pride Monarch looked helpless, even a little fearful.
This made the Lord of Wrath furious.
He even wanted to roll up his sleeves and give the Pride Monarch a good beating.
Among the Seven Demon Lords, the Lord of Wrath was the strongest. The more enraged he became, the more he could unleash power beyond his current Realm.
It was precisely because of this that the Lord of Wrath became the only Demonic Lord among the Seven Demon Lords who acted solely on strength.
“Bastard! Do you really think I’m easy to fool?!”
“If it weren’t for you, how could those three have died?!”
These three Soul-Devouring Demons were Devil Kings under his command.
Although their strength wasn't top-ranked among his subordinates, they were incredibly useful in terms of ability.
The Soul Devouring Demon Clan was best at infiltrating other races to gather intelligence.
“Lord of Wrath, you’re wrong about this.”
“As members of the Demon Clan, isn’t it our duty to repay grudges and return kindness with enmity?”
“If we can even abandon hatred, then can we still be called Demons?”
The Lord of Wrath was momentarily stunned after hearing this.
Because he felt that what the Pride Monarch said made a lot of sense.
Just like him, he always repaid grudges. If something displeased him, he wouldn't reason with the other party, but would directly fight them.
Anyway, as long as Hong Level powerhouses didn't appear, there was basically no one in the Universe who was his opponent.
In fact, when enraged to the extreme, he could even unleash Hong Level strength.
This was why he was the head of the Seven Demon Lords.
“Although what you said makes a lot of sense, I still feel like something is off!”
“Alright, Lord of Wrath, if you really can’t stomach it, you could always go to Blue Star.”
“Just capture that human yourself, and then torment him severely. Wouldn’t that be enough?”
As the Pride Monarch said this, the Lord of Wrath felt a stir of intention.
However... although he disliked using his brain and preferred to solve problems with violence.
That didn’t mean he was truly foolish!
“Pride! Don’t think I don’t know what you’re up to!”
“Li Zun is stationed on Blue Star. Are you trying to send me to my death?”
The Pride Monarch felt a little regretful after hearing this. Although he knew this guy was truly reckless, he wasn't truly stupid.
Even the Lord of Wrath wouldn't do something that would lead to his death.
“Of course not.”
“Don’t worry, even though your three subordinates died, you still have a chance to avenge them.”
“What chance?”
The Lord of Wrath asked curiously. If he could get revenge, he would certainly go.
Unfortunately, the target was Li Yao, Li Zun's son.
If he dared to go to Blue Star, he might be slapped to death by Li Zun before he could even kill Li Yao.
“The scout I just sent to Blue Star, possessing a Human soldier, sent back information: Li Yao’s companions have entered a Profound Level Secret Realm.”
“If we send some Demons into the Profound Level Secret Realm and abduct his companions, what do you think Li Yao will do?”
“Save them?”
“Yes, he will definitely go to save them, but it will be very difficult to capture him.”
“However, to disgust him, if we kill his companions right in front of him...”
The Lord of Wrath had already imagined the scene without the Pride Monarch needing to continue.
“Good! Count me in for this operation!!”
“Damn Li Yao, how dare he kill my subordinates!”
The Lord of Wrath had only just managed to snatch the Soul Devouring Demon Clan from the hands of the other six Monarchs, and now three of the strongest Soul-Devouring Demons had been killed. It would be strange if he didn't feel pain.
These were the Demons he intended to cultivate to serve as his eyes and ears.
Now, three of them were directly gone.
“With your words, this plan should succeed.”
The Pride Monarch’s smile was somewhat sinister, as if this was truly a Demonic smile.
...
Blue Star.
This was Dragon Capital.
In Dragon Capital, there was a place called Universe Plaza.
Universe Plaza was specifically used for teleportation to the Universe Transfer Station.
Each activation required the consumption of one Spiritual Power Token.
Spiritual Power Tokens were a universal commodity in the Universe. After special processing, they could store unowned Spiritual Qi.
These Spiritual Qi were used for transactions; the more Spiritual Qi stored, the greater the value.
And Spiritual Power Tokens were also important tools used to activate space teleportation.
Each activation would cost approximately five to ten tokens, depending on the distance.
Just then, with the vibration of the space gate, the shuttle gate opened.
Apparently, someone, or another race, had arrived at Blue Star from the Transfer Station.
When the blue light flashed, a person appeared in the shuttle gate of Universe Plaza.
“Is this where Big Brother and Sister Yang currently live?”
The newcomer was Li Chengfeng of the Immortal Race, the Tianren Clan.
After communicating with Li Xiaofeng, Li Chengfeng came to Blue Star alone.
He had two objectives: to see his nephew and to visit his Big Brother and Sister Yang.
“Although they are one of the top ten races in the Universe, their current foundation is still too weak.”
Although the Moon, Mars, and Venus were already in the development stage.
However, these three planets, like Blue Star, were occasionally attacked by exotic beasts.
Therefore, the development of the Moon, Mars, and Venus was very difficult.
The Human Race's starting time was simply too short, but to have their current situation was already good.
After Li Chengfeng arrived at Universe Plaza, a team of soldiers responsible for patrolling the area rushed over.
Upon seeing Li Chengfeng, this 'Human,' they asked with serious expressions: “Hello, sir, please cooperate with our routine inquiry.”
After all, every guest who came to Blue Star from the Universe needed to be thoroughly questioned about their purpose. If they were here to cause trouble, they could be directly subdued.
